Eternity
Disclaimer: I don't own Rurouni Kenshin or the opening poem
If tears could build a stairway,
And memories a lane,
I would walk right up to heaven
And bring you back again
You were always so smart
Always so knowledgeable
But because you were younger then I,
I never believed you.
But, on that day, I should have
I should have
But I did not.
.Sometimes, I think
If only I had trusted your instinct
If only I had gone with you
You would be here today.
But you are not
You are gone
And it is my fault
All my fault.
And so, as I lie here dying,
I do not think about Kenshin trying to protect me,
I do not think about Toki by my side trying to comfort me,
I do not think about the countless soldiers with their guns pointed my way
As death envelopes me in her comforting yet icy embrace,
You are all I can think about
My darling Kentatsu
You and the fact that, now,
We can finally be together
Together for all eternity
